What is new.

13 SEPTEMBER 2026 / ROBOTS AT HOME

Meet your future housemates.

Robot Folio is now Robots at Home, at robotsathome.org. Our new house-and-robot mark and warm green palette connect the publication to our robotics video channel. The journal, directories, comparisons and parts workbench keep their familiar paths.

6 SEPTEMBER 2026 / A NEW COVER, A BIGGER WORKBENCH

Welcome to Robot Folio.

Our new name brings the journal, robot directory and maker workbench together. Browse a new robot showcase on the homepage, then explore 45 components with dedicated M5Stack, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, Arduino, Teensy and Jetson filters.

Fourteen new boards include CoreS3, AtomS3, Pico 2 W, Compute Module 5 and Teensy 4.1. Processor and software notes help distinguish a Linux computer from a firmware controller. Existing page addresses and saved preferences still work.

6 SEPTEMBER 2026 / A PRACTICAL ADDITION

Budget beyond the purchase price.

The free ownership calculator adds purchase, delivery, setup, monthly services and annual upkeep over one to five years. Blank costs stay visible as unestimated. Copy or print the result; your amounts stay in the page.

6 SEPTEMBER 2026 / FIRST EDITION

Robot Folio, issue one.

Ten original guides, 20 robot profiles, 28 company profiles, ten suppliers and eight printer models. Search the directories, compare up to three robots and follow the source documents.

The first edition introduces an independent editorial approach, source-based ownership comparisons, printable-part guidance and a beginner starting point. The site includes RSS, shareable comparisons, copyable buying questions and optional interface sound.

Affiliate links require explicit approved configuration. Analytics is optional and off until you opt in.
